Coronavirus

What is it with liberal outlets and their apparent virtue-signaling obsession with eliminating meat from our diets? The New York Times published a wacky op-ed headlined “The End of Meat Is Here.” In the sub-headline, author Jonathan Safran Foer grumbled that “If you care about the working poor, about racial justice, and about climate change, you have to stop eating animals.” [Emphasis added.]…

Many of us have seen videos of people acting like tattletale "Karens" during the coronavirus pandemic. However, few instances of "Karening" are quite as hilarious as what happened to MSNBC reporter Cal Perry when he tried to pull a Karen live on MSNBC on Memorial Day at Lake Geneva, Wisconsin when he pointed at someone who was not wearing a face mask. Little did he or Kathy Tur in studio expect…

Hear that? The inane chirping? That means its quadrennial celebrity cicada season again. Every four years some of the great, the near great and the not great (yet all unquestionably ingrates) from the entertainment world emerge to threaten to deprive us of their presence if we vote incorrectly. 

It’s official: The coronavirus is a partisan weapon for the New York Times. The paper deployed it in its co-lead story slot Monday -- Memorial Day --  “Virus at Its Deadliest in the Strongholds of Democrats.” The online version of that headline was even blunter: “The Coronavirus Is Deadliest Where Democrats Live.” 

Tuesday’s Dana Bash-Joe Biden interview was embarrassing and pathetic to begin with for CNN, but things got even dumber right after it first aired. On The Situation Room, host Wolf Blitzer spent over six minutes boasting of how not only was it an “excellent interview” with Biden’s “very strong words” for President Trump, but how socially distanced the interview was.

A bevy of bloggers on the right have highlighted one of the most dramatic examples of comparative coronavirus bias: Those reckless southern Republican governors in Georgia or Florida who allegedly love commerce more than human lives, versus New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, our apparent national lodestar of competence. One side gets the heat, the other gets his press conferences broadcast live…

Hypocrisy must have been the main course at CNN host Chris “Fredo” Cuomo’s Memorial Day barbeque, because he was serving up leftovers during Tuesday’s edition of Cuomo PrimeTime. Cuomo, the guy who beclowned himself by twirling around giant cotton swabs and flouted his coronavirus quarantine when he knew he was infected, bashed President Trump with accusations of playing games and those who didn’…

Naturally, Trump-hating and fear-loving CNN served Tuesday as Joe Biden’s first in-person interview since the coronavirus pandemic began and, right on cue, chief political correspondent Dana Bash fulfilled her role as a real-life Bashful, liberal foot solider, and citizen of Zuckerville. Between softball questions and assisting Biden in touting anti-Trump conspiracy theories, it was mission…

The liberal media clutch their pearls when President Trump levels criticisms, nicknames, and insults against his political opponents. But when it’s the other way around, they celebrate it. A couple of hours before the evening newscasts aired on ABC, CBS, and NBC, presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden took part in a softball interview on CNN. What piqued the interest of the broadcast networks…

How deep in the partisan bag is Chuck Todd? Imagine a Democrat president presiding over the coronavirus epidemic. Now imagine daily US deaths plunging from 2,701 on May 6th, down to 504 yesterday. Todd would be breaking into live coverage to trumpet the good news. So how did partisan hack Chuck Todd react to that news today? By asking: "How much WORSE will this get from a public health standpoint…

Writing and making public one’s opinions guarantees people will respond. Writers, performers and every human likely desire his or her thoughts, and even their life, to matter to others. The alternative is to become hermits. Like other opinion writers I get my share of positive and negative letters, but during the Trump administration the level of invective for those questioning anything the…

CNN political analyst and Politico writer Ryan Lizza decided during Monday’s briefing to follow girlfriend Olivia Nuzzi from April 27 and ask a snarky question about how many deaths would be acceptable to the White House in terms of President Trump’s reelection prospects. The only difference here was Nuzzi tried to trap Trump whereas Lizza’s verbal grenade was lobbed at White House Press…

Much of the mainstream media is now performing an end zone victory dance over the news that the World Health Organization has suspended clinical trials of hydroxychloroquine due to safety concerns. Typical of the coverage is this Politico story on Monday, "World Health Organization pauses study of hydroxychloroquine in global trial."
